Brink Different

We don’t know how many of the hostages in Gaza are still alive. We don’t know all the details about the political pressure campaign to get a deal done ahead of the US transition of power. And like every other deal that’s shown promise during this relentless conflict, we don’t know if the latest deal between Hamas and Israel will actually happen. But it’s been a long time since we’ve seen the world hope in a headline from the region. CNN: Hopes rise for Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal. And from BBC: Ceasefire agreement ‘right on the brink’, says Blinken, as details of deal emerge.
